Estimating trauma prevalence from incompletely preserved human skeletal samples: A comparison of two approaches
The prevalence of trauma in human skeletal samples – and its comparison across samples through time and space – is commonly used in bioarchaeological research to reconstruct population-specific social, cultural, and environmental life realities. With decreasing skeletal completeness, however, traum...

| Итог: | The prevalence of trauma in human skeletal samples – and its comparison across samples through time and space – is commonly used in bioarchaeological research to reconstruct population-specific social, cultural, and environmental life realities. With decreasing skeletal completeness, however, trauma prevalence estimates become increasingly uncertain because once-present trauma may not be preserved in the archaeological record. Therefore, skeletal remains in a sample are typically restricted ... |
